Title: Admin Account Mysteriously deleted
Post by: 2bz2p on July 01, 2012, 03:32:20 PM
Hi,

    I am posting this not as a How do I get it back. I did that already via phpmyadmin, but I can not find anywhere how it was deleted. The other admins did not do it, by accident or on purpose and I tested a scenario where I deleted my admin account in phpmyadmin and my postings did not change to 0. I feel pretty confident that the account was deleted through SMF and not myphpadmin. I also checked the database for possible admin's that are not showing up in the members list, kinda like a hiden admin and also checked my permissions for delete account any which was not set. In conclusion I am just looking to see if anyone else has run into this.

Thanks

Really.... Could you give me the details of the trojan so that I could work with my server hosting to repair this issue or if for some odd reason it exists with in the fourms itself and not the server please let me know.

Wait one the site in my profile is different from the one I am refering to which is usvaf.com

Thanks

I mean http://www.flopdogg.com/ if it's also in your server, you need to let your host scan your server.

Yeah thank you, I am chit chatting with them now. One of the members of USVAF uses the same antivirus as you and says nothing comes up under USVAF.com but does for flopdogg.com.

also, please note that this is not feedback nor is it discussion.

Support requests should be posted in the support boards.... (but you never said what version you're running)

I apologize for posting it in this thread I was Google searching and believe I ended up in this thread via another post about the person manually deleting the account.

Version is 2.0.2 for the USVAF - which is where my admin account was deleted and hasn't happened since last night.

Flopdogg.com was 1.14 or 15 maybe -  I deleted the site so that I would not pass on any more Trojan's on.

Which brings me to my next aspect of this. Would the Trojan have deleted the account considering they were two different SMF Database and the file containing the Trojan didn't exist in the same directory as the usvaf SMF directory.

Thanks again,
2bz2p
